Conference and Meeting venues in Carmarthen

A truly historic location which lays claim to being the oldest town in Wales, Carmarthen is a wonderful choice of destination for meetings, conferences and events.

Both the spectacular Carmarthen Bay and stunning local countryside provide opportunities for teambuilding events and corporate activities whilst less adventurous delegates can enjoy the town’s impressive historic venues including the medieval castle. A small town packed with charm and character, Carmarthen offers the very best of Wales to meeting planners and delegates.

Carmarthen is easy to reach via the M4/A48 routes, via good rail links and through flights into Cardiff Airport for international delegates.

With such a strong connection to the local environment it’s no wonder that many Carmarthen conference venues also have a link with nature.
